Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Chapter 1090 - 1090 Spikes

Chapter 1090 - 1090 Spikes

1090 Spikes

It was the purple essence! It was a good thing to use against the barbarian race!

So much purple essence! They could be sold for a high price!

She could profit from it!

As she thought of this, Tang Mingyue reached out to pull out the purple essence.

“Chi!!”

Suddenly, Tang Mingyue’s expression changed.

The moment she touched the purple essence, she felt a sharp pain on her fingertips. The sharp pain instantly spread across her entire palm, as if her palm was being burned!

What was going on? Tang Mingyue was so scared that she immediately retracted her hand.

Her entire palm was red as if it had been burned, and it even felt numb!

Tang Mingyue turned to look at the others.

The purple essence was deeply embedded in the wall and was extremely hard. It would take a lot of effort to remove it.

The other players were currently holding the tip of the purple essence with one hand and continuously swinging their weapons with the other, trying to cut the purple essence off.

No one was like her, unable to come into contact with the purple essence.

Wei Tao noticed Tang Mingyue’s strange behavior. He looked at her and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Tang Mingyue frowned and replied, “I don’t know. I feel like I’m in trouble.”

After hearing Tang Mingyue’s description of the purple essence and the effect it had on her, everyone was confused.

Thinking about it carefully, Tang Mingyue had more than one strange point.

First, she had been called a demon by the cave-dwelling beasts, then she had been chased by the elder of the cave-dwelling beasts below, and now she was affected by the purple essence.

No matter how they thought about it, something didn’t feel right.

“Where’s the game prompt? Is there anything in the game log?” asked Mikhael. “What’s the hint?”

Tang Mingyue flipped through the game log and was shocked again.

[Hint: Player received damage from purple essence -572.]

She had just touched the purple essence lightly and she had lost a quarter of her HP. If she held the purple essence in her hand, wouldn’t she die immediately?

“It said that I lost a quarter of my HP. There’s no other description.”

Wei Tao frowned and said in a low voice, “There is indeed a problem. Anyway, let’s take the purple essence first. We’ll discuss it after we get out.”

Everyone nodded and continued to cut down the purple essence spikes around the pa.s.sage and put them into their backpacks.

After cutting off the purple essence and storing it in their bags, the group followed him and climbed about ten meters before finally reaching the top.

The opening at the top was blocked by a large piece of purple essence stone.

“Leave it to me,”

Mikhael suddenly jumped up, his body suspended in mid-air, and drew his sword.

The sword light flashed.

“BOOM!”

The explosion caused by the spatial fluctuation in a small area blew the purple essence into several pieces, revealing the pa.s.sage above.

With his sharp eyes and deft hands, Mikhael quickly put the purple essence shards into his backpack.

“Let’s go!”

Seeing that the hole had been broken open, everyone immediately climbed out of the hole.

He climbed out of the cave and saw a familiar cave area.

The interior of the cave was rather s.p.a.cious, and there was a winding pa.s.sage in front.

Mo Jiawei gasped with lingering fear as he finally managed to overcome the crisis.

After confirming that there was no danger in the surroundings, Wei Tao indicated for the team to rest and recover their strength, count the casualties, and wait for Fang Heng to come out of the cave.

After resting for more than ten minutes, Tang Mingyue was a little anxious when she realized that Fang Heng had not appeared for a long time.

“Why is Fang Heng not out yet? Did he run into trouble?”

Mikhael shrugged and said, “There’s no need to wait for him. Before we left, he told me that he wanted to try and see if he could kill the elder of the cave-dwelling beasts.”

“…”

Hearing what Mikhael said, everyone fell into silence again.

A monster.

As expected, only monsters could deal with monsters.

“Ahem.” Seeing that the situation was a little awkward, Mo Jiawei cleared his throat to break the silence and asked, “Do you guys think that the purple essence spikes at the entrance are used to prevent the cave-dwelling beast elder from escaping?”

Wei Tao followed Mo Jiawei’s train of thought and agreed, “Yes, that’s very likely.”

Tang Mingyue looked bitter. She muttered, “I think it might be to prevent me from escaping…”

“Let’s give it a try. We can throw a piece of purple essence down. It might help Fang Heng.”

As he spoke, Mikhael took out a larger piece of purple essence from his backpack, wrote a note, stuck it on the stone, and threw it into the cave.

“Just in time. Let’s give Fang Heng a hint and tell him that we’ve already gotten out of trouble.”

…

In the oval-shaped hall, at this moment, the head of the elder had already reattached to his body.

Evil Bones had completely lost Tang Mingyue’s aura and began to chase after Fang Heng.

The Lickers surrounded Evil Bones and tried to slow it down.

Unfortunately, after losing the debuffs of the spell, Evil Bones’ movement speed was too fast, and it was difficult for ordinary Lickers to catch up.

“Bang!!!”

Evil Bones thrust his spear forward!

The bone spear blasted a hole in Fang Heng’s chest. Fang Heng was pushed back by the impact and hit the wall behind him.

Chi Chi Chi Chi!!

Taking advantage of this, the surrounding Lickers immediately swarmed toward Evil Bones.

“Oh!”

Argyll shouted, his heart aching for the large mural that had been destroyed by Fang Heng.

Fang Heng gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he quickly rolled over and got up. The wound on his chest was healing quickly.

After the initial panic, Fang Heng had already gotten used to the rhythm of the battle.

In any case, with the health recovery effect of the undying body, the two sides couldn’t kill each other.

Furthermore, with the help of the Lickers, the margin for error was extremely high.

The only thing he needed to do was to protect Argyll’s safety.

While thinking, Fang Heng glanced at Argyll, who was beside him.

The zombie clones had already cleaned up the debris on the edge of the wall and were surrounding Argyll to protect him.

Argyll was studying the stone murals under great mental pressure. He was very nervous, and from time to time, he would sneak a glance at Fang Heng, who was fighting with Evil Bones.

Fang Heng noticed Argyll’s gaze and asked, “How is it? Did you find anything?”

“Okay, okay. We’re now in the sealed area of the cave-dwelling beast’s forbidden sealed area. It’s used to seal demons.”

Fang Heng’s brows were tightly locked together. He picked up the bone spear again and rushed towards Evil Bones, “Continue, continue.”

“The sealed area is filled with countless monsters, and Evil Bones might be the guardian of the seal.”

Argyll scratched his head. The information described in the mural was difficult for him to understand for a moment.

“Not only Evil Bones, but the alchemy lifeform we saw before was also the same. From the murals, a powerful human alchemist extracted the power of the evil demon from a body and sealed it in the alchemy lifeform, using it as a source of energy to drive it to protect the peace of the underground world.”

“I don’t understand many of the murals. I think they say that in order to obtain enough power to protect the seal, the elder also turned himself into a demon.

“Yes, what else?”

“That’s all. The rest of the murals are incomplete. It’s too difficult to guess blindly based on the broken murals. I need time to calm down and study it.”

Fang Heng squinted and asked, “What does the Ouroboros on the mural mean?”

“Ah? What?”

Argyll was at a loss.

“Bang!!”

As he spoke, Fang Heng was once again blasted away by Evil Bones’ spear and smashed into a pile of gravel.

Fang Heng supported himself with the wall and stood up again. He pointed to a mural on the right and asked, “What’s this line of words?”
